No More Acne

A lot of women were makeup everyday. In fact, most women do. And if that describes you, then hopefully you are already doing the face care cleansing tips I will outline in this article. A good rule of thumb is to cleanse your face once in the morning and once at night. And if that isn’t possible, never go to bed without first washing your face. No matter how tired you might be!

Making a habit of cleansing your face will definitely keep the wrinkles at bay, plus your skin will always be the best that it can be – glowing from the inside out. By establishing a good cleansing regime, you will end up with soft, bright skin as well as a clean, healthy look.

Here’s my number one face care cleansing tip: understand the benefits of cleansing and you will want to do it everyday – religiously. If you knew how much dirt and grime accumulates right on the surface of your skin everyday, you wouldn’t even think twice about skipping washing your face! Dirt build up on your facial skin can cause skin problems that could have easily been avoided.

Before you start cleansing, pull your hair away from your face and if possible, pin it up or put it in a pony tail. One of the most important parts of cleansing your face is making sure you clean all the way up to your hairline. Dirt and grime gets lodged right at the hairline and it’s important to keep this area clean to avoid breakouts.

Second, take off your eye makeup and mascara. You need to do this gently to avoid stretching the skin around your eyes. This is something I think we are all guilty of! I know I have been. The skin under and around your eyes is much more delicate than the rest of your facial skin. And stretching it or rubbing it too hard can cause damage (wrinkles).

So, we all get wrinkles eventually, it’s part of life. But, you can keep wrinkles at bay if you follow these face care cleansing tips. Especially the part of taking care around your eyes. To best remove eye makeup and mascara, simply soak a cotton pad or cotton ball in your cleanser or eye makeup remover and gently wipe the mascara off.

The next thing to do is to apply a cleansing solution, lotion or cream to the rest of your face. You can massage it into your skin and especially in areas that might be prone to blemishes or blackheads. The massaging technique does two things. It helps to loosen up makeup and grime and some act as a moisturizer as well.

Now that you have covered your face with the cleansing cream or lotion, you can gently remove it with a soft washcloth, cotton ball or pad or tissue.

Toner is a wonderful follow up after cleansing your face of all makeup. It’s not mandatory, but I really like how toner makes my skin feel. And after I’ve applied the toner and let it dry, I then use a night cream that is just right for my skin. It’s amazing how soft my skin feels when I wake up every morning!

One last thing to think about: you’ve done a beautiful job cleansing and caring for your face each night. Don’t stop there. When you wake up in the morning, wash your face and be ready for a brand new day. Your face will love you for it and you’ll see a noticeable difference in how your skin reacts to the everyday wear and tear of pollutants, makeup, dirt, etc… Treat your face kindly. It’s the only one you’ve got!
